Makkah


The Kaaba (Qaaba) (Arabic: الكعبة‎ al-Kaʿbah : [ʔælˈkæʕbɐ], English: The Cube)[1] is a cuboid-shaped building in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, and is the most sacred site in Islam. The Qur'an states that the Kaaba was constructed by Abraham(A.S) (Ibrahim in Arabic), and his son Ishmael(A.S) (Ismaeel in Arabic), after the latter had settled in Arabia. The building has a mosque built around it, the Masjid al-Haram. All Muslims around the world face the Kaaba during prayers, no matter where they are. This is called facing the Qiblah.

One of the Five Pillars of Islam requires every Muslim to perform the Hajj pilgrimage at least once in his or her lifetime if able to do so. Multiple parts of the Hajj require pilgrims to walk seven times around the Kaaba in a counter-clockwise direction (as viewed from above). This circumambulation, the Tawaf, is also performed by pilgrims during the Umrah (lesser pilgrimage). However, the most dramatic times are during the Hajj, when about 6 million pilgrims gather to circle the building on the same day.

The Kaaba is located at 21°25′21.15″N 39°49′34.1″ECoordinates: 21°25′21.15″N 39°49′34.1″E inside the
Masjid al-Ḥarām (A.: المسجد الحرام‎, the "Sacred Mosque") mosque in the center of Mecca (A.: كة‎ Makkah). A large masonry structure in the shape of a cuboid, it is made of granite quarried from nearby hills. Standing upon a 25 cm (10 in) marble base that projects outwards about 35 cm (14 in), it is approximately 13.1 m (43 ft) high, with sides measuring 11.03 m (36.2 ft) by 12.86 m (42.2 ft).

Makkah in Sky


The Qur'an states that Abraham (A.S), together with Ishmael (A.S), raised the foundations of the holy house.Allah had shown Abraham(A.S) the exact site, very near to the Well of Zamzam, where Abraham(A.S) and Ishmael(A.S) began work on the Kaaba's construction or, according to tradition, reconstruction as Muslims generally believe that Adam(A.S) had made it first and that it had been rebuilt by Noah(A.S) after the Deluge. After Abraham(A.S) had built the Kaaba, an angel brought to him the Black Stone, a celestial stone that, according to tradition, had fallen from Heaven on the nearby hill Abu Qubays. According to a saying attributed to Muhammad(Sallal laho alaihi wasallam), the Black Stone had "descended from Paradise whiter than milk but the sins of the sons of Adam(A.S) had made it black".

After the placing of the Black Stone(الحجر الا سود)alhagar alaswad with Arabic in the Eastern corner of the Kaaba, Abraham(A.S) received a revelation, in which Allah told the aged prophet that he should now go and proclaim the pilgrimage to mankind, so that men may come both from Arabia and from lands far away, on camel and on foot.Going by the dates attributed to the patriarchs, Abraham (A.S)is believed to have been born in roughly 2150 BCE, with Isaac(A.S) being born a hundred years later.Therefore, Islamic scholars have generally assumed that the Kaaba was constructed by Abraham(A.S) around 2130 BCE. The Kaaba is, therefore, believed by Muslims to be more than a millennium older than Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, which is believed to have been finished in 1007 BCE.[20] These dates remain consistent with the Muslim belief that the Kaaba is the oldest mosque in history.

Jashn e Eidmeladul Nabi


Celebrating Eid-e-Milad
When we celebrate Milad, we gather, in order to send salutations (Esal-e-Swaab) to the Prophet [May Allah bless him and grant Him peace], give charity to the poor (Sadaqah Khairat) and remember wilaadah(Birth) and virtues of the Prophet [May Allah bless him and grant Him peace]. The Ahl as-Sunnah does not say that one must celebrate “Milad” only on 12 Rabee’-ul-Awwal, in fact it can be celebrated at anytime of the year. Generally Milad-un-Nabi is celebrated, on the 12th of Rabee’ul-Awwal, by Muslims all over the world. In every Muslim country, there is a public holiday for “Milaad-un-Nabee”, except one country, but even in that country, the people celebrate “Milaad” individually. The birth of the Anbiyaa’ has been mentioned in the Qur’an. For example, Adam, Musaa, Eesaa, and Yahyaa (May Allah bless them and grant them peace). If it is wrong to talk about the birth of the Prophet (May Allah bless him and grant him peace), then why has Allah TA’ALA mentioned it in the Qur’an?
Evidence of Milaad-un-Nabi from the Qur’an
Allah Ta’ala says in the Holy Qur’an:

Say: “In the bounty of Allah, and his mercy;- Therein let them rejoice.” That is better then what they Amass.

(Yunus, 58)

In this verse, Allah Almighty tells us that we should be happy when we receive blessings and mercy from Him. Without doubt, the Prophet [May Allah bless Him and grant Him peace] is the greateset mercy and blessing of Allah Almighty

Allah Almighty says in the Qur’an:

“And we sent not to you but a mercy for all the worlds” (Al’Anbiyaa’, 107)

AllahAlmighty says in the Qur’an:

Oh Prophet! The communicator of unseen news. We have sent you as a present beholder and bearer of glad tidings and a warner.

And an inviter towards Allah by His command and a brightening sun.

And give glad tidings to the believers that for them is great bounty of Allah.

(Al-aHzaab, 44-47)

AllahAlmighty says in the Qur’an:

…remind them of the day of Allah…

(Ibraaheem, 5)

Hafidhh Ibn Kathir and Qadi Shawkani write that:

“the day of Allah” refers to the day on which AllahAlmighty has done a favour on mankind. For example, the freedom of Bani Isra’il from the slavery of Fir’awn.

[Tafsir Ibn Kathir, and Fath-ul-qadeer, by Hafidhh Ibn Kather and Qaadee Shawkaanee]

Allah’s graetest favour on mankind was the birth of the Prophet [May Allah bless him and grant Him peace]. This means that the Milaad of the Prophet [May Allah bless him and grant Him peace] is a “day of Allah”, therefore we should remember it.

Hafidh Ibn Rajab writes that:

It is recommended to fast on those days on which Allah Almighty has sent blessings on us. The greatest favour which AllahAlmighty has bestowed us with, is the sending down of the Prophet [May Allah bless him and grant Him peace]. Allah Almighty says in the Qur'an:

“I have favoured among nations and sent to you a Prophet from among you”(ltaa’if-ul-ma’rif, page 111, by Hafidh Ibn Rajab)

Kalma sharif



There are two basic and fundamental conditions to be a Muslim or Muhammad;
1- Oneness of Allah Almighty.
2- Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the last prophet of Allah.
 Simply stated any person who professes the Muhammad (PBUH) religion, that is, acknowledges, that there is but one God, and that Muhammad PBUH is his Prophet, is a Muhammad (PBUH) . Such a person may be a Muhammad (PBUH) by birth or he may be a Muhammad (PBUH) by conversion. It is not necessary that he should observe any particular rites or ceremonies, or be an orthodox believer in that religion; no court can test the gauge the sincerity of religious belief. It is sufficient if the professes the Muhammad (PBUH) religion in the sense that he accepts the unity of God and the Prophetic character of Muhammad PBUH.

Madina


Medina (English pronunciation:; Arabic: المدينة المنورة‎, al-Madīnah al-Munawwarah, “the radiant city” (officially), or المدينة al-Madīnah; also transliterated as Madinah, or madinat al-nabi "the city of the prophet(Sallal laho alaihi wasallam)" is a city in the Hejaz region of western Saudi Arabia, and serves as the capital of the Al Madinah Province. It is the second holiest city in Islam, and the burial place of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad(Sallal laho alaihi wasallam), and it is historically significant for being his home after the Hijrah. Before the advent of Islam, the city was known as Yathrib, but was personally renamed by Muhammad(Sallal laho alaihi wasallam).

Medina is home to the three oldest mosques in Islam, namely; Al-Masjid al-Nabawi (The Prophet(Sallal laho alaihi wasallam) Mosque), Quba Mosque (the first mosque in Islam's history),and Masjid al-Qiblatain (the mosque where the qibla was switched to Mecca).

Because of the Saudi government's religious policy and concern that historic sites could become the focus for idolatry, much of Medina's Islamic physical heritage has been destroyed since the beginning of Saudi rule.

The Islamic calendar is based on the emigration of Muhammad and his followers to the city of Medina, which marks the start of the Hijri year in 622 CE, called Hijra (هجرة).

Similarly to Mecca, entrance to Medina is restricted to Muslims only; non-Muslims are neither permitted to enter nor travel through the city.Muslims believe that the latter verses of the Quran were revealed in Medina and its surrounding outskirts, called the medinan suras.
